One of many reasons?
He's one of two.
His incompetent guardianship, and Covid. What else can you add to the list?
 

Actually, forgive me, scrap that, Sibley was given a nigh on impossible task. Thinking back, there was a couple of times when the Preston defender marking him appeared to manhandle him as well. 
I'm thinking back to the game and just trying to fathom out the reason why we didn't score. We had so much quality on the ball, especially the first twenty minutes. Absolute class. Preston was there for the taking. It should have been three points. 

Looks like 45 million will get both the stadium training ground and football club all in. In honesty he’s gotten everything right so far before anyone else. He mentioned the appeal and who’s interested. With Wigan he was bang on with everything to a tee. Maybe he knows people within the admin circle. He says the jez moxey group is Appleby and rush and others. These were the interested party at the stadium vs Swansea 

Let the man embrace his passion. Perhaps a bit ambitious but has his right to enjoy his own emotions, as do we all.

Always liked Cliff, bit of a ledge.

The level of debt he was carrying though is why he failed when covid hit. Morris had no wriggle room left to be able to cheat his way out of. He knew it was game up but instead of admitting he screwed up, he doubled down blaming everything on covid and the EFL! 

I love how much people want Nixon to be wrong, because I agree the man's a p***k and I hate the publication who pays him. 
 
But he's right more often than not and often the first to give us new info.

You were saying? 

I'd argue the first domino was the fact that the people running the club had pushed it to breaking point, meaning we had absolutely no ability to mitigate any change in circumstances outside of the clubs control, and I suspect that is exactly what whoever reviews our appeal will say shortly before dismissing it. 

Good evening Mr Hosking.

Waste of 300k that could have been used to keep people in jobs.
No chance we win this appeal given the state of our finances. To say COVID is the sole reason we are where we are is just false.

As someone who's of the opinion Mel is the sole cause of this mess, and yes the EFL were ✨less✨ than helpful in the handling/acceptance of our accounts etc, I think those responses are fair. 
Although they do keep banging on about the need to move away from a beneficiary model of ownership.. which lets not forget has been allowed to become so commonplace under their own stewardship. Stinks of the Tories saying we have to restore our country to former glory etc etc every election, despite having been in power for 11 years.

Some care, Some care that a bloke who ordered the murder of a Washington Post journalist is now the proud owner of NUFC.
But not enough and you're right, it would be the same for most other clubs.

It’s very obvious he checked out, almost completely. Not to say that Pearce, or whoever, was left to run the abandoned, sinking, perilous ship shouldn’t have done something about it. 
Piled up the debts, until there was a real chance he might have to pay it back and then dumped the club in administration under the pretence it was the best for everyone. The guy is arguably the worst charlatan that has ever darkened the door. 

Absolutely none.
But we're adept on this forum at stitching a coat to a button...

It's not his footballers that he underpays. DCFC is not in poo because it overpays cleaners, admin staff and so on.

People's main gripe seems to be that he massively underpaid his workers...for that reason alone I'm in, ridiculous wage bills are a huge part of why we are in this mess. 

Ashley would probably be ok for DCFC at the moment. 
For the way he allowed his workers to live in Shirebrook he can duck off and die.
 
 
 

Wouldn't want him anywhere near our great club...

No way things are so bad people are defending Mike Ashley and wishing he'd buy us.
We've got to get out of this mess soon, it's starting to twist our collective melons.

They exist, not thrive, and have no ambition to compete.
I know that sounds ok right now, but look at what his ownership has done to a wonderful club.
I know people say Newcastle fans have a sense of entitlement, despite not having won anything in years, but look how his ownership has sucked any hope out of its supporters, and turned the entire fanbase against him.
They exist in a purgatory, between the club they've become, and the club a little ambition would become, an irrelevance beyond their fanbase, and an embarrassment to their diminishing fanbase.
 
 

If Mike Ashley was to take over, I'd call it a day on football.
